Pink Pauses Performance at Concert After Fan Tosses Mom's Ash on Stage
During a recent Pink concert at BST Hyde Park in London, the "Just Like a Pill" singer encountered a fan who threw a bag containing their mother's ashes onto the stage, according to USA Today.
The singer paused her performance and addressed the situation, expressing confusion and uncertainty about her feelings. In a video circulating on social media, Pink can be seen picking up the bag and questioning whether it contained the fan's mother's ashes.

Pink Concert Incident Draws Criticism on Social Media
The incident involving the fan throwing a bag of ashes onto the stage during the Pink concert has sparked criticism and disapproval from online observers, per Daily News.
People expressed dissatisfaction on social media, deeming the act inappropriate and bizarre. Some individuals shared their reactions, expressing that they would have been upset in Pink's position, while others questioned the overall behavior of concertgoers.

Concertgoers' Misbehaving Is Not New
Recent incidents involving American pop singers Bebe Rexha and Ava Max have been concerning disruptions and acts of aggression during their performances, The Music reports.
During a concert at the Rooftop of Pier 17 in New York, Bebe Rexha was struck in the face by a phone thrown at her, causing her to fall to her knees and clutch her face. Her team assisted her off the stage, and a scheduled meet and greet had to be canceled.

Furthermore, during a concert at Madison Square Garden in New York City last summer, a fan threw a chicken nugget at Harry Styles on stage. The fan was apparently trying to get his attention or engage in a playful interaction.
Despite these incidents, Pink has announced her plans to return to Australia in February and March 2024, with additional tour dates added due to the high demand for her Summer Carnival tour.
